May 2026 — The Presence of Scale
Studio Letter — May 2026
I am pleased to welcome you to this month’s studio letter.
In this May edition, I would like to speak about scale — and why larger formats can completely change the way an artwork lives within an interior.
A small print invites close attention. It asks the viewer to come nearer. A large print does something different: it enters the room as a presence. It becomes part of the architecture, the atmosphere, and the visual rhythm of the space.
For this reason, many works are especially powerful in larger formats such as 60 × 90 cm, 90 × 120 cm, and 120 × 180 cm. Square works can also be produced in strong architectural sizes, including 60 × 60 cm, 90 × 90 cm, and 120 × 120 cm.
These formats are not only about size. They are about distance, proportion, and impact. A large artwork can hold a wall with clarity, create a focal point in a room, and allow details, textures, gestures, and tonal transitions to be experienced with greater depth.
Large prints work particularly well above a sofa, bed, console, sideboard, fireplace, or in an entrance hall, corridor, studio, office, dining room, hotel room, or private interior with enough visual space around the work.
In most cases, a large piece should not be crowded. It needs air. A generous margin around the artwork allows the image to breathe and gives it the calm authority it deserves.
For collectors and interior designers, large formats are often the most effective way to make a single work feel complete within a space. Instead of adding many small decorative elements, one carefully chosen large print can define the entire mood of a room.
If you are unsure which size would suit a particular wall, you can always send a request with your question, approximate wall dimensions, or a photo of the space. I will be happy to advise on the most suitable format.
As is my tradition, each month I present a “Gallery of the Month” — a personal selection of works that resonated with me most during this period.
Gallery of the Month: May 2026 — Urbanis
This month’s selection is dedicated to the nude in the urban environment: a series of art nude and street nude works where the human body enters into dialogue with architecture, texture, light, and public space.
